Velouria Wig Styling & Updates

 

Wig styling again today! Well, technically this was what I was getting done yesterday. If any of you follow my Facebook page, you would have noticed a lot of updates about wig styling and wig care along with updates about this and that. Soooo... Here's an update on that! 

I got this wig that you see here in the mail from eBay. The wig isn't that great because the wefts can be seen as light as day, but I made my decisions and I honestly could care less as I do plan to wear my hoodie for Velouria quite a bit. 

I straightened the curls out in the wig to get the hair straight and nice! Hopefully it works out in the end, but I might plan on adjusting the length at some point. I did cut the fringe though because when it and arrived, I recall there being long bangs for me to adjust and cut. 

 

Aaaaand here's the photo update! I made it so that the sewn in black wefts also blends in a little better. I had taken the leftover hair from the fringe and I had decided to use it and make wefts to sew into the wig to make it more fuller in the bang area. I love how it turned out! 

 

Unfortunately the wig is hard styled, which I honestly hate beyond my control but it's what looks the best and is the most accurate so I will hopefully be able to make it through.

 

Gotta fix the fringe a bit more when it's being propped on my head, but we will see!! When I get all my supplies in, I'll be posting about the incredibly cute Velouria herself in a cosplay test.

Studio Ghibli Tribute Art Show

 

Hey everyone! It's me again after a while of silence once again. This time around I'll be sharing my thoughts and some photos of the studio Ghibli art gallery/show that I had visited with my family a little while back. 

 

I decided to go to the grand opening of the event in my Kiki cosplay from a while back (similar to the first time I had worn this cosplay out) and it was a pretty nice run the second time around. 

 

The line by the time we had arrived there was around the corner of the block so we had gone to one of the food trucks to snag some stuff..and in the end I came back with this incredibly yummy strawberry and cherry hello kitty ice cream! 

 

Truth be told, I was way more excited about this ice cream than anything else...but anyways ....that's not the point.  It took us maybe a solid 30 minutes to wait and get positioned into the actual building holding the art.

 

 And to be honest, I was mildly disappointed with how small the display was and how there was more contemporary interpretations (as poor as this sounds). I shot a few things from the night and I'll be just dropping photos below, but they were a very select few that I found appealing and intriguing. The others were very abstract interpretations, which isn't wrong but it wasn't necessarily my cup of tea either. 

 

 

 

 

 

Aaaaand that's all for this post! We quickly packed up and headed home right after to eat some food. We ended up going to this newly opened noodle place about ten miles away. It was pretty interesting! And definitely was a fun and worthwhile day. Albeit exhausting because of so much heat...

 

My College Ceramics Class -- The Timeline (#1)

I'm much too troubled right now to really caption most of the photos, but this past semester I had taken a ceramics class! I originally was taking it to have a class with an old friend, but after a variety of incidents had occurred they dropped the class and I was stuck continuing in it without a refund...or much else. Thankfully I had my friend Jason around but 'til next time. I'll show more of the work that I had made next time around.

The Broad

Hey everyone! I've been working on a lot of stuff, and I keep running out of things to talk about and writing about old posts give me a rough time. I'm not going to talk or say much about my experience with the Broad and when I had gone there, but I had a grand time and I hope you can tell from all of the photos that I had taken. Until next time!
